thank you so much, i'll definately look it up. what fustrates me is the fact that they only allow one peice of personal item, that meant i had to choice between my laptop, camera, headphones, or a small bag with my travel documents. of course i choice the documents, but they're really not giving me a feasible way of bring what i thought was pretty standard stuff from DTW-YYZ safely
